    Answer:

    x = 6

    y = -1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    i solved the second equation for ‘y’ to get ‘y = 5 – x’

    now i substituted that expression into the first equation for ‘y’

    2x + 7(5 – x) = 5

    2x + 35 – 7x = 5

    -5x = -30

    x = 6

    find ‘y’:

    6 + y = 5

    y = 5 – 6

    y = -1
